Yhden makuuhuoneen mökki oli kahdelle pariskunnalle aika pieni, mutta 2 yötä menetteli. Vaihtoehtoja Kakadussa ei ole paljon. Ihan OK paikka. Uima.allasalue on hyvä. Siinä on baari ja ravintola.

It was a very clean and pretty modern cabin (queen deluxe i think) with everything you need apart from a cooktop. But the restaurant on site was good for dinner, nothing special but your average sort of pub meals. Great location to base from to go to all the Kakadu sites.

Ok for 1 night

It’s ok for 1 night - pretty basic. Cabins could have had things like a lamp beside beds to make more comfy.

Stayed in an ensuite cabin. It was newly built and was perfect. The pool area is amazing with a beautiful big pool, large grassed area and lots of seating. We ate at the pool bar and the food was amazing. The young lady who checked us in was lovely but the the other young lady in reception was particularly unhelpful. Worth visiting the visitor centre and the lake in Jabiru

Everything was provided as expected in a tourist park. Nothing exceptional but given the isolation of this part of Australia we were well satisfied.

The staff appeared that they didn’t want to be there! Not friendly at all. The room’s & amenities need a clean and a coat of paint. For $300/night one would expect better. The flies at the restaurant while trying to eat a meal was horrendous.
